They are extremely stretchy and can look very short and fat or very long and thin. Looks like you might have an invader with this one.

So, it is a flatworm... Thanks, I'll edit it later...

Hey Lanzz. This looks like a geoplanidae to me. Also called 'flatworms'. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geoplanidae
